About this property

Magnificent Cabin views of Sangre De Cristo Mountain Range & Wet Mountain Valley

A magnificent taste of Heaven with the Sangre De Cristo Mountain Range, at least 5 14'ers, with 52 Lakes, hiking and trails. The back deck and master view of the Wet Mountain rolling meadows, and hills will just captivate you. We have 4 decks to enjoy every angle of this paradise and once here you will never want to leave. This is a brand-new build with a Rustic Chic environment. You will feel relaxed on our 36.2 acres of land with the friendly deer at our doorstep. We have all brand-new beds, with upscale linen, all baking and cooking supplies are here for your use as the 36" Viking Oven and Stove top is amazing with all the upgrades.

We have wildflowers blooming everywhere, and the front of the property is filled with trees, and a tree fort for all to enjoy. Lake Deweese is only 15 minutes from the Cabin and all the luxuries of a small town, with Art Galleries, Custom Wood shops, Mills, Restaurants, Bakeries, Florist and so much more. We are only 1 hour from Salida, 60 Minutes from the Pueblo Reservoir, 50 minutes from Bishops Castle and so much more, as you need to check out the Visitors Center. This Dark Sky Community also welcomes the Rodeo, Music Festivals, Car shows and the best hospitality.

The Challenger Lodge is a dream come true, with all logs hand planed, sanded and stained. We have taken so much pride in all we created here for you. It was never intended as a Vrbo or any rental property , however since my dream retirement home is not in the near future, i am thinking of so many people might really love this environment, landscape, sites, view, and Heaven.

The dreams of the skies and land end with this property, will see it all. Just a vision come to life here at The Challenger Lodge, where your dreams of unparallel comfort and a beautiful cabin. come true, and we so hope you love what we have created for you. We have a private airport just 2 miles from the cabin so fly in.

May you be blessed each and every day of your life and the beauty of Westcliffe, 2200 CR 310, always be your most special moments, adventures, and loving memories.

Beautiful, tranquil cabin, with stunning views of the mountains. Plenty of wildlife to observe and the dark sky community does not disappoint! The location of the cabin feels remote, but you are only 10-15 minutes from Main St. Westcliffe and numerous hiking or ATV trails. Our stay was perfect! Awe will definitely return to this little piece of heaven.

There are no words to describe the property to the level it deserves, every space is thought out, and it has the best views in the area. The owner was the best too, helpful in everyway. I hope to stay here many times over again. The wildlife was amazing just outside the door. I cant recommend this property enough.

The name says it all

This cabin was amazing. Furnished with everything you could need. The wrap around deck provided endless views of the sunrise, sunset and wildlife around the cabin. We had deer near the cabin every morning and evening. We couldn’t keep the hummingbird feeders full either. The star gazing is amazing in the area. We love the Westcliffe area. This was our third year in a row in the area. We enjoyed walking in town to shop and eat lunch. We went to Salida, Cripple Creek, and Mt. Princeton Hot Springs. The host was very kind and easy to work with. We would definitely stay here again!

Amazing views!

This house is truly beautiful. The wrap around deck was the place we gathered the most. Between the sunrises and sunsets, it provide great views. The house is very well stocked with most everything you could want. It was quiet yet close enough to town. We would highly recommend.
